Most of the customers at the time included governmental institutions, private business sector & foreign missions in Somalia. In 1982, the company was renamed as Jubba Arts and offered modern plastic signboards by using both hand painting and machinery. Jubba Arts was one of the biggest companies in the arts & drawing at the time in Somalia.

In 1991, after the collapse of the central government in Somalia, operations of Jubba Arts come to halt but restarted its business in 1993 The company was operating until 2005 when it was rebranded as Signjet with the idea of migrating from old hand painting techniques to more modern digital printing machines.
